Men are brought up to be tough, self-reliant, emotionless, and invulnerable. This process happens through a variety of influences such as fathers, friends, brothers, coaches, media and porn. As we live in a rule-driven society, naturally, the process of male socialization takes place according to a series of rules. Some of these rules are spoken and some are unspoken. These are the rules of growing up male; the Man Box culture, rules that all young men must follow or risk punishment. The punishment may come in the form of ridicule, harassment, social exclusion or a beat down. All the punishments have a painful sting to them, however, so every man quickly learns these lessons; lessons which last a lifetime. The biggest problem is that these lessons adversely impact their relationship with their girlfriend or spouse. There is some good to this process, and there are some pieces that do not serve us. AND none of this is mens’ fault. However, it is our responsibility to learn new ways of being in relationship… if we truly want to be happy. Find out how in this compelling, fascinating and revealing podcast with Dr. John – the relationship coach for men.
